Lyrics

Episode version

Homer:

I like to walk down the avenue,

Bust a move with Disco Stu.

Disco Stu:

You shake me from my booty,

To my 'fro.

Homer:

Yes, I strut down the boulevard,

Burning off my excess lard.

I rarely feel the need to utter "d'oh".

Top of the mornin', ladies.

Patty:

Bite us.

Homer:

I can walk from Springfield to Alaska,

Then hobknob with the stars in Malibu.

Steve Buscemi:

Hi, Homer, I'm actor Steve Buscemi.

Homer:

The guy who got fed into the wood chipper in Fargo?!

And when I hear...

Turkmenistanians:

You can't walk to Turkmenistan.

Homer:

I say, "Of course I can! Screw you!"

Steve Buscemi:

Hey, would you guys like tickets to the Independent Film Awards?

Turkmenistanians:

Would we?

Homer:

Oh, I love to perambulate,

It's standing still I really hate.

So let me please reiterate:

I love to—

Lenny:

Morning, Homer. Lookin' good.

Carl:

Yeah, walking's made a new man out of you.

Homer:

It sure has. You see this bulge back here? Now it actually is a fanny pack. No, wait. It's still my ass. But your point is well taken. You see...

I like to walk down the avenue,

Bust a move with Disco Stu.

Disco Stu:

You shake me from my booty,

To my 'fro.

Homer:

Yes, I strut down the boulevard,

Burning off my excess lard.

I rarely feel the need to utter "d'oh".

Top of the mornin', ladies.

Patty:

[screams in pain]

[Marge gasps]

Homer:

My feet are inside me.
